Dear Representative, FreedomWorks is a leading grassroots organization with over one million members fighting for lower taxes, less government and more freedom. I am writing today to urge you to cosponsor H.R. 371, the Health Care Choice Act. Introduced by Rep. Blackburn (R-TN), this bill would repeal title 1 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and amend the Public Health Service Act to permit consumers to purchase health insurance across state lines. These changes would allow consumers to purchase health insurance that best meets their needs in any state.

The White House's call to conduct a regulatory review which focuses only on obsolete and old regulations is hardly worth it; the immediate threat to American jobs are not just old and obsolete regulations which were implemented ten, twenty or thirty years ago, but the near-1000 new rules that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued during the past few months. The Wall Street Journal notes:

On February 3, 2011, FreedomWorks and a coalition of conservative organizations sent a letter to the top leaders of the U.S. House and Senate, urging them to pass legislation stopping the Obama Administration from implementing Obamacare, pending review of the unpopular law’s constitutionality by the Supreme Court.

The battle for school choice in Pennsylvania is still raging, but some of the heroes of the state's school choice movement have already emerged. They are already demonstrating how to win a debate with the power of ideas, if the audience is there to receive the message.In this week's Jewish Exponent, State Senator Anthony Williams Hardy of Philadelphia made the case for Senate Bill 1:

Dear Senator,FreedomWorks is a leading grassroots organization fighting for lower taxes, less government and more freedom. I am writing today to urge you to cosponsor S.202 Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2011. Introduced by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), the bill would eliminate the current audit restrictions placed on the Government Accountability Office (GAO) and require a full and thorough audit of the Federal Reserve.

Dear Senator, On behalf of over a million FreedomWorks members nationwide, I urge you to cosponsor Sen. Toomey’s (R-PA) S.163 Full Faith and Credit Act. In the event that the debt ceiling is reached, the bill would require the United States Treasury to pay principle and interest on debt held by the public first. By prioritizing payments on the debt, this will ensure that the United States does not default on its debt and it will help rein in government’s out-of-control spending.

For anyone who believes in free-markets and limited government, President Obama’s “State of the Union” address not only failed to provide hope for a change of course, it instilled concern that the White House would pursue a more radical one.
